The Libyan government, appointed by the House of Representatives and led by Osama Hamad, has announced the temporary provision of ready-made homes to residents of Eisayen, a town bordering Algeria, whose homes were damaged by recent floods in the southwestern regions.
In a statement, the government said that this measure is part of its efforts to support areas affected by floods and storms.
The ready-made homes delivered to the victims serve as a temporary solution until their severely damaged homes can be repaired.
Additionally, the Emergency and Rapid Response Committee, established by Prime Minister Osama Hamad and led by his deputy Salem Al-Zadma, has begun clearing paths and removing debris from main roads blocked by the floods in the affected areas of southwest Libya.
More than 5,800 people have been displaced in the Ghat region of southwest Libya after heavy rains caused severe flooding in the cities of Ghat and Tahala.
According to the International Organization for Migration (IOM), most of the displaced have taken refuge with relatives, while others are being housed in camps and schools.
In a statement on its Facebook page, the organization detailed the distribution of the displaced: 720 people in Tahala, 3,280 in Ghat, 100 in Wadi Essien, and 1,725 in Barkat.
The southwest region has been hit by heavy rains over the past few days, leading to flooding in several areas, particularly Tahala.
The floods have also caused significant damage to electricity and communication networks in Tahala, Barkat, Al-Awainat, and Ghat.
